This year’s Socktober Campaign was a roaring success! Our NCIVS KeyClub organized and led our biggest donations to date! Huge thank you to our generous Viking school community for their support of this yearly event.

Our Gr 11 and 12 art students put their sketching and photography skills to the test by observing live animals and learning about nature conservation at the Toronto Zoo. Their visit also supports the Zoo’s mission to save vulnerable wildlife through conservation and education.

Our annual Grade 7/8 Open House is Thursday November 26th from 6PM to 8PM. Join us as we showcase all NCIVS has to offer our Future Vikings!

Socktober you Blew Us Away! The NCIVS community has once again shown what it means to care for others and make a difference! This years Socktober Drive was our most successful yet, raising an incredible: - 566 pairs of socks - $1 650.80 in cash donations - A grand total of $2782.80, equivalent to 1381 pairs of socks. We are generously fortunate to live in such a generous community. Time and time again, our students, staff, families and community members demonstrate the empathy, kindness, and giving to those in need are at the forefront of who we are. Your contributions will help provide comfort, dignity, and support to members of our community who need it most. Thank you to everyone who donated, organized, promoted and supported this initiative. Together, we are proving that even something as simple as a pair of socks can make a meaningful difference. Way to go Vikings!

🧪🐻 Happy Mole Day from SCH3U Chemistry! 🐻🧪 October 23 (10/23) is Mole Day, celebrating one of chemistry’s most important concepts: the mole! A mole represents (6.022 \times 10^{23}) particles — that’s Avogadro’s number! 🔬 Our SCH3U Chemistry students got creative by making their very own stuffed animal moles to celebrate the occasion. Who knew chemistry could be this cuddly? 🧸⚗️ From atoms and molecules to adorable lab companions, our students are bringing chemistry to life, one mole at a time! #MoleDay #SCH3U #Chemistry #NCIVS #ScienceInAction #AvogadrosNumber #October23

Our Geography students participated in a Cultural Geography activity by carving pumpkins and our ALLP students and Peer Helpers used their artistic talents to show Northern's Spirit of Halloween with some spooktacular painted pumpkins. These pumpkins will be displayed this Saturday at Fright Night at Cana-Scare-A Park. Our Key Club students have been volunteering everyday over the past 3 weeks to prepare for the big event.  Check out our Vikings' hard work this weekend!

🔬 Learning Biology Through Hands-On Science at NCIVS! 🐸 Our Grade 10 Science students have been exploring the fascinating world of biology through frog dissections! This hands-on learning experience gives students the opportunity to examine anatomical structures, investigate organ systems, and connect classroom learning to real-world biology. By observing, investigating, and asking questions, students are developing important scientific skills while gaining a deeper understanding of living organisms and the complexity of life. At NCIVS, we believe that some of the best learning happens when students can put science into practice! 🧪 #NCIVS #ScienceInAction #Biology #HandsOnLearning #FutureScientists #LKDSB

Our Health & Wellness SHSM students took their learning outside the classroom today for an incredible Self-Defense Training session at The Butcher Shop Jiu Jitsu studio! Our students learned valuable skills to keep themselves & others safe.

Visiting Korny Korners was a highlight this week in the ALLP program. Joined by their peers in the PAI 4O1 class, students learned the inner workings of a farm while enjoying the animals and hands-on machinery. It was a beautiful day to visit this local farm destination.

Photo retake day is Oct. 23rd.

Our ALLP students read the book “In a DARK DARK ROOM," today. Working with their peers in our Grade 12 PAI 4O1 class, they created ghosts to get into the Halloween spirit. Special thank you to Ms. Black for guiding the learning & creating in the library. We learn best together!

This month's Artist of the Moment is Kamryn. Kamryn began their love of photography in grade 9 at NCIVS and continues to enjoy learning and growing the medium. Check out Kamryn's work by the main office.
